I want to transfer Video Tapes to DVD or other formats.  Would appreciate some advice on which programs to consider

I am not looking for free software (unless there is something exceptional available)

The Tapes are of historical interest and I want to preserve them

I find that DVD disks tend to deteriorate so are there any alternatives (such as large hard disks  - like My Passport Ultra?  It seems to me that  it would make more sense to transfer to master hard disks and then   I can always burn DVD's from these.

I have netbackup software version 8.0. I need to upgrade to the latest version 8.1.2.
I have one master server and two media servers. All of them runs windows server OS.
Could you tell me how to upgrade this backup software, or point me to step by step article that explain the process.

could you tell me any good blog for Netback software. Any good articles and tips about Netback.

Backed up a MAC to Time Machine with encryption enabled. Backup complete now its encrypting data which my understanding takes awhile, much longer than the backups. I turned off Time Machine hoping it speeds up the encryption process. Question, I hoped to do a rebuild on the MAC and reinstall the OS after the backup. Will I be able to recover my data (don't want to re-image from the backups just recover data) prior to the encryption process finishing? It's been on 6% for awhile.

Do you know of any reputable company (must be a company) that offers technical support for upgrading backup VERITAS Backup Exec? The server has support from Veritas  backup exec but Veritas tend to assign front line techs to upgrades and they are trustworthy.

Please advise on best means/options to enable most reliable two way sync between QNAP TS-453B and Google Drive GSuite Account.  The QNAP provided software options have not been optimal.

Note:  File Stream is not an option as I need files stored on the QNAP to stream via Plex.

I would like to choose the folders(s) to sync and that both changes on the QNAP and Drive account enable changes on both ends.  

Please advise as well regarding other problem to consider when doing this.

Trying to add 3tb ext HD to a pc with Windows 64-bit and Trend Microsystem. I tried a WD Passport and even after taking Trend entirely off, it never fully installed. I see on forums others had this issue with Trend/Passport not getting along (mine would never fully install). But sadly,if they found a solution, they never stated what ext HD DID work!  Any one got experience with this issue who might be able to advise me on what ext HD to try next?

Hi, Using Shadow Protect the full backup failed with error: Cannot get access to destination object. What is the fix please?

We’ve noticed on our Terminal Server that the Windows Search service is periodically writing large amounts of data (sustained 600,000-1,000,000 B/sec). This was first noticed when our ShadowProtect backups began generating 2-5GB incremental files. We run them every 15 minutes and this is much larger than our typical backup. We tracked the problem down to Windows Search.

This was noticed after rebooting the server. We restarted the WSearch service and things seemed to calm down for a while. Within a couple of days the problem reappeared. Since then we rebuilt the search index and configured to only index Outlook. Again, it seemed to run fine for a couple of days and then we noticed the large incremental backups caused by WSearch.

Our Terminal Server is Server 2012 R2 which is virtualized on an ESXi host machine. We had Widows Search/Indexing up and running without issue long before this problem appeared.
